•This machine is a Powerful Precision.•The 560 mm (22") width bed is of high. Rigidity rib structure design, coupled with high tensile mechaniteecast iron which has annealed treatment to eliminate intermal residual stresses. The bed ways are high frequencyheat treated and precision ground.•Spindle equipped with two points bearing support, (for 156 mm spindle hone-fitted SKF or FAG code no. 320386i 32040 for 230 mm spindle bore-fitted SKF or FAQ Code Ho. 32025 ik: 32056) and dynamically balanced.The spindle gears are module 4 and wide enough for heavy duty cutting, and having 4 speed range changes,allows full power output and large cutting forces when the spindle speed is In the low gear range.
